Deep in Victoria’s High Country, a culture still exists that refuses to be forgotten. The Mountain Cattlemen’s Annual Get Together brings together horses, heritage, campfires and generations of bush tradition in one of Australia’s most rugged landscapes. This is more than an event, it is a living connection to the people, horses and pioneering spirit that helped shape the High Country.

The Golden Plough Festival returns to Peak Hill, NSW in 2026 for its incredible 50th Anniversary, celebrating Australia’s rich horse ploughing and agricultural heritage. This rare rural festival brings together powerful draught horses, traditional ploughing competitions, working horse demonstrations and authentic bush culture in a living tribute to the farming traditions that helped build Australia. For anyone passionate about draught horses, rural history and preserving old bush skills, The Golden Plough is a truly unique Australian experience.
